my poor christmas tree has been ahem....naked shall we say for the last 5 christmases. i've been shamefully using an old white receiving blanket draped around the bottom of the tree. it's a sad boring excuse of a tree skirt and i admit i hate putting it there every year. so this year i've decided to "try" to get one made. no pressure...just adding it to my would love to have done this holiday season list.
after reading a comment on last week's holiday crafting support group post requesting a christmas tree skirt roundup i thought "aha...now that's exactly what i need to roundup". so here you go! i got out my lasso and rounded up what i think are some spiffy and purdy christmas tree skirts. you've got quilted, pieced, felt, no sewing, knitted and crocheted tree skirts. have fun & most of all i hope you get inspired! also, if you know of an awesome tutorial of your own or one you love please leave a link to it in the comments below and i'll add it to the "your faves" section of this post! alrighty...go pour yourself a nice big glass of (spiked) egg nog and let's get crafty!
